educates informs
I would wish eventually to be able to make television that informs and educates as well as entertains.
performing
I would like to do things like I did in Tanzania, going somewhere and exploring a theme and investigating as well as performing for those people.
I've never categorically been a banker. I had two internships while I was at university. The decision was more banking, or magic, and I went with the latter.
approved effect love
I think that magic, at its root, is a very abstract notion. There's no real, approved definition. And, in that sense, it's like love; you can only see magic by the effect it has on people.
man wider
Magic, historically, has been a man doing tricks with no wider story behind it.
amount behind huge message simply slightly
I think there's a huge amount of magic on television, which is slightly vapid: there's no real meaning or message behind it; it is simply a trick.
actual chopping cookery following journeys less shows ten tv
Ten years ago, TV cookery shows were about a man or a woman following recipes. Now, it's all about journeys and campaigns and less about the actual chopping and dicing. That's what I'd like to do with magic.
age obsessed
From a young age I was obsessed with the mysterious, the esoteric, the paranormal.
arrived became boyish school
I arrived at school pensive, introverted, and not very sporty, so magic became a place of mystery and intrigue, an escape for my boyish mind.
art great lets magic people touches
Magic touches people in the way great art does. It lets them see the world with new eyes.
elicit falling feeling love
Being able to elicit the feeling of the unfathomable in intelligent adults is like falling in love.
